'Explosive' lawsuit accuses longtime Trump aide of rape

A lawsuit filed against longtime Trump aide Jason Miller accuses him engaging in "a cycle of sexual coercion, rape, sexual assault, abuse, battery, sexual harassment, and sex trafficking."

The Daily Beast's Jose Pagliery, who describes the lawsuit as "explosive," reports that it was filed on behalf of A.J. Delgado, a former Trump 2016 campaign aide with whom Miller had an affair and who has since long accused Miller of stiffing her on child support payments.

The lawsuit alleges that Miller would ply Delgado with alcohol and then take advantage of her sexually while they were working together on Trump's campaign for the presidency.

This happened the first time, the suit alleges, when Miller lured her back to a Las Vegas hotel room where she woke up the next morning after having apparently blacked out the night before.

"Delgado, who had had an extremely busy day and had had very little to eat, was inebriated, nauseated, and felt unwell,” the lawsuit claims. “The next morning, Delgado awoke in the bedroom portion of the suite, partially dressed, with her jumpsuit hanging around her ankle, what appeared to be vomit on the side of her pillow, and one of her high heels on the bed. There was evidence that Miller had had penetrative sex with her in her hotel suite, relations that were not consented to by Delgado, and Delgado was fully unable to consent to any sexual relations.”

Miller has denied Delgado's allegations and he told The Daily Beast that her lawsuit is part of "a pattern of conduct... simply intended to harass my family while wasting the judiciary’s time and resources."
